LeAnn Thieman, coauthor, Chicken Soup for the Christian Womans Soul and Chicken Soup for the Christian Soul 2

Bonnie Keen, author, speaker, recording artist

In her new book, Linda reminds us that we can still expect miracles, we can still hear Gods voice, and our prayers really make a difference. With so many diluted versions of the gospel around today, it is refreshing to see such genuine faith. Thank you, Linda.

Foreword

Some twenty-first-century folks seem to think that miracles ended when the canon of the Bible was closed. Yes, they believe that in the Bible a donkey really did talk, a sea really got parted, Jews walked across on dry ground in search of the Promised Land, Jairuss daughter was raised from the dead, and Jesus ascended into heaven right in front of his followers. I agree that all those things actually happened. What I dont agree with is the contention that God is not in the miracle business today.

In Linda Evans Shepherds new book, How to Pray When You Need a Miracle , she drives this point home with forthrightness and refreshingly transparent honesty. Her illustrations are relevant and encouraging.

Any book that begins with the promise If you read this book until the end, you will experience miracles had better deliver, and this one does. Linda speaks with the depth of experience of one who has needed miracles in her life. She asks, How are we ever going to learn to walk on water if an occasional toilet doesnt overflow?

But the takeaway from How to Pray When You Need a Miracle isnt just that the author overcame setbacks and even, some would say, tragedies. Its a primer on seeking a miracle from God.

And like many things, its almost as important to know what does not work as what does. One of the things I like most about this book is that it pulls no punches about the reason bad things happen in the first place. Linda is very frank about trying to get God to perform for us. Many tried to get Jesus to do amazing things when he walked the earth, just to see a miracle. Its not that God is stingy with his miracles. I think hes prudent. Hes God. Indeed, God says no to our prayers when it serves his divine purpose.
